KANSAS CITY, Kan. – The USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car Series field will make its seventh and eighth appearances at Lakeside Speedway’s four-tenths-mile dirt oval during a doubleheader on May 21-22.
An increased payout will be at the forefront both nights, with $6,000 to win and $600 to start in Friday’s feature. Saturday’s A-Main posts a $7,500 top prize and again offers $600 to start.
The event is co-sanctioned by three different USAC series: the USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car Series, the Wholesale Batteries Midwest Wingless Racing Ass’n and the USAC Wingless Sprints Oklahoma.
The weekend on dirt will feature a pair of full-points shows for the national series.
However, for MWRA, the race will pay feature points only, while for WSO the event will be considered a non-points special event.
Previous USAC national sprint car feature winners on the dirt at Lakeside include Tony Elliott (2001), J.J. Yeley (2001), Robert Ballou (2015 and 2016), Thomas Meseraull (2016) and Brady Bacon (2017).
Tickets will be available at the gate on each race day. However, tickets can also be purchased in advance at www.TracPass.com.
One-day general admission tickets are on sale for $25. Two-day general admission tickets are $45. Tickets for children 12-15 are $10 per day, while kids 11 and under get in free.
